Personally, I don't see what's wrong with "Heraldry". The name has
class ;-) and people will learn to spell it just like they learned to
spell Apache Tapestry or a zillion other projects with unusual names.
Also, don't underestimate the currency the term has already from the
blog and news coverage since Berkman last week. Re-education/re-
branding is expensive.
But then, better now than later if there are good reasons for
changing it. So I abstain, except to agree with Kevin that Ibid
probably isn't an improvement...
